Shetland Sheepdogs, better known as Shelties, are extremely bright and sensitive dogs that are known for their devotion to their families. Shelties were originally developed as herding dogs in the Shetland Islands of Scotland and their herding instincts are often apparent even in a more urban setting. In the absence of livestock, Shetland Sheepdogs will happily herd cats, squirrels, and neighborhood children. These small-statured but sturdy canines are particularly devoted to their families and have developed a reputation as "Velcro" dogs due to their preference for staying as close to their human companions as possible.
